In order to maintain proper perormance o the product, it is essential to have the most up-to-datesotware. Visit the Humax website to check the latest news and newly released sotware versions (http://www.humaxdigital.com). It is recommended that you periodically check or the availability o sotwareupdate.

11.1 OTA (Over the Air)

OTA, an abbreviation o Overthe-Air, is a standard or the transmission o sotware through a broadcast

system. OTA is simply an alternative method or downloading sotware versions. However, themanuacturers reserve the right or deciding the release o the sotware or their products by beamingthe latest sotware versions over the air via satellite. Note that OTA is only limited to certain geographicalregions mainly due to dierent antennas having dierent ootprints (area where the signal can bereceived). The ollowing actors must be true or the sotware update via satellite to occur:

1. The equipment has the appropriate loader sotware.

Caution: Please note that i the normal loader sotware is not equipped, the product may not beupdated or operate properly ater sotware update.

2. The manuacturer decides to release the sotware via a designated satellite.3. The equipment is tuned properly to the same antenna equivalent to that o the manuacturer.4. The signal strength and quality is high. I severe weather conditions are aecting reception, or

example, the sotware update should be postponed until signal strength and quality are avourableagain.

Caution: Please be careul to keep the power on and the power cord plugged in during sotware update. I the

power is o during sotware update, atal damage may be caused to the product. Please be careul not to pull out the signal line (LNB cable) during sotware update. Update may be

interrupted and the product may not operate.

Note: It may take 5~10 minutes to update sotware. Other unctions will not activate while sotware update takes place. You cannot schedule programmes during sotware update.

1. Sotware update while watching a programme

When new sotware is detected, you can choose to download the sotware immediately or save or later. Incase there is no sotware currently available, select Nextand press the OK button to proceed to the nextstep.

2. Sotware update via USB host

Copy the sotware to the USB memory stick and connect the USB to the receiver. Press the STANDBYbutton and turn o the power. To power on, press the STANDBY button while switching on the receiverto start sotware update.

Press the SOURCE button i the product is in external input mode.

3. Poor picture/sound quality Install the antenna in an obstacle-ree place.

Make sure there is no mobile phone or microwave oven near the product.

Keep the power and the antenna cable or the satellite apart rom each other.

Check the signal levels and adjust your antenna i the level is too low. The signal level may be aected by

weather conditions.

Note: I the antenna is covered with snow or the RF is weakened by heavy rain, the condition o thesound and picture may temporarily be poor. However, the poor sound and picture quality due toweather conditions cannot be accepted as a malunction o product.

Check that your dish alignment is correct.

Change the satellite dish or a larger one as this will increase the signal levels received.

Replace the LNB with a lower noise actor in cases where the noise actor is too high.

Replace the LNB with a new one in case it is damaged or out o order.

4. No or poor sound Check that your AV cable is connected correctly.

Check the volume levels o your TV set and the product. Check i the product or TV is on mute.

12.5 Glossary

1. DiSEqC (Digital Satellite Equipment Control)A DiSEqC compatible receiver relies on a switching box which detects the 22kHz tone pulsing rapidlyon and o. In this way, a specially designed receiver can control numerous LNBs through a DiSEqCswitching box.

2. Dolby DigitalAn encoding system that digitally compresses up to 5.1 discrete channels o audio (let ront, centre,

right ront, let surround, right surround) into a single Bitstream. A low requency eect (LFE) channelis included providing the sound needed or special eects.

3. DVB (Digital Video Broadcasting)Set o standards that defne digital broadcasts using satellite, cable or terrestrial systems.

4. EPG (Electronic Programme Guide)An electronic equivalent to a printed television listings magazine; it is an application used withdigital set-top boxes and digital television sets to list current and scheduled programs that are orwill be available on each channel, including a short summary or commentary or each program. Theinormation supplied in the EPG is sent and updated by the channel broadcaster.

5. FEC (Forward Error Correction)A technique or error control o data transmission.

6. FrequencyThe property o a signal measured in cycles per second (=Hz).

7. FTA (Free- To-Air)An unscrambled broadcaster allowing customers to view channels or services without paying anysubscription.

8. Hi-Fi (High Fidelity)The characteristics o audio devices that can play back all the audio requencies a person can detect,which is the range o 16Hz~20KHz. Sometimes it is used to indicate good quality o audio devices suchas stereo tape recorders.

9. LNB (Low Noise Block)A device that is mounted on an arm acing your satellite dish, ocusing on satellite signals. A LNBconverts signals received rom satellite to a lower requency and sends them to a satellite receiver viacoaxial cable.

10. OSD (On Screen Display)OSD displays the basic inormation necessary or the users to confgure monitor or TV settings. OSDinormation may include brightness, contrast, tuning, RGB adjustment, and screen size and position.

11. OTA (Over the Air)A standard or the transmission o sotware or equipment, through a broadcast system. Manuacturersreserve the right or deciding the release o the sotware or their products.

12. PolarisationThe direction o the electrical and magnetic felds o a signal. Satellites use both vertical and horizontalpolarisation so a requency can be used twice.

13. PID (Packet Identifer)A set o numbers identiying stream packets contained within a single data stream.

14. QPSK (Quaternary Phase Shit Keying)Digital modulation technique in which the carrier phase can have one o our possible values.

15. RF (Radio Frequency)Television signals are modulated onto RF signals and are then demodulated by your televisions orSTBs tuner.

16. SCART

A 21-pin connector standard to connect two pieces o Audio-Visual equipment such as a TV and a VCR.Each device will have a 21-pin emale connection; a cable with male connection at both ends is usedor connecting the devices.

17. S/PDIF (Sony/Philips Digital Interace ormat)A standard ormat or the transer o digital audio signals. It allows the transer o digital audiobetween two devices without any conversion to and rom analogue, which could degrade the signalquality.

18. S-Video (Super-Video)Sometimes reerred to as Y/C video; a technology or transmitting video signals via a cable. It is a videosignal transmission in which the luminance (brightness) and the chrominance (colour) signals aretransmitted separately to achieve superior picture clarity.

19. TransponderA satellite is divided up in parts called transponders. A transponder is one distribution section o thesatellite. Each transponder can be used or distribution o several channels or services.
